My ADV, Geoffs Blend from Tasty Vapor also does not seem to want to shine on the DID. I am almost thinking that it needs the carto filler and corruption to make the flavours pop.. 
That's one of the problems I have. I only have tobacco juice, and a lot of it. I have a couple non-tobacco juices too high in mg for the DID. I do have some Bobas (that's about as non-tobacco as it generally gets for me) and I really don't care to vape sweeter juices. So I will wait to see if I can get my DID shining with Bobas, but if I have to learn to love/appreciate sweet juices or non-tobaccos, then I may have to re-think this. I am not one of those frustrated with the DID itself, but flavor of my tobaccos is what I seek above all else. One of my favorite tobaccos tasted so damn funky in the DID that I've had to put that flavor away until I forget that taste. I remember wondering about flavors and this device, but you have to try for yourself to know. Flavors matter.
I vape tobacco juices almost exclusively and find they're fabulous on the DID. In fact, I taste subtle nuances in these juices that were previously hidden with cartos. I'd recommend you play with the setup a while longer; you may yet enjoy the results you're after. I realize everyone's tastes are different and YMMV, just relating my experience.
I'm sorry about posting about that Chinese DID (http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...enesis-type-atomizer-did-412.html#post6918068)... I was just letting Jim know that the Chinese copied his DID and I think there's nothing wrong with my post. Copying someone's masterpiece is a form of flattery.
Buy hey, I'm not endorsing that crappy Chinese DID imitation. I'M A LOYAL JIM DID VAPER!![]()
It's carbon from the wick going down with some thickened burned juice/flavoringsI have the same but only with orange de sangre from HBV. It still vaping the tank bone dry and even those last darker drops got the same flavor. Im using 200 mesh btw.
In a carto tank orange de sangre did this to, i got the 70/30 pg/vg version.
What are some of the juices that perform best for you that are tobacco? I only vape out of attys and have not tried tobaccos out of cartos...never will.![]()
I'm vaping Casablanca by BWB 12mg at the moment. I also vape a lot of Flavourcrafters Mac Maurier which is Canadian tobacco flavour and certainly cannot be compared to a conventional American tasting cigarette. Also tried varous other tobaccos but the Casa and Mac are the ones that I've had the best results with in the DID. 70/30 PG/VG on a 400 wick, 3/4 wraps 1.6-1.8 ohm, 3.7-4v indicated on the vmax (or 4.3-4.7 on anyting else...lol) filler screw in, medium wick thickness. However most significantly, no shorts or hotspots. Those will destroy a tobacco flavour faster than you can say I DID it.
So once agin my vape quality starting going bad. I opened the top only to find that, once again, the top brass nut had loosened up. There must be a better way to fashion the post connection! I'm heading to Lowes to find some small needle nose pliers.
Have you tried any naturally extracted tobaccos like W2V, GoodeJuice, Prime Vaping, Vaperite or anything along those lines. Thanks for your input BTW. I love this thread, period.

Mono, you're using the Orange de Sangre in a clear tank on your DID? I'm just curious to see how the Kir Fanis tank holds up to citrus juices.So its something in the liquid that does break down the carbon? I switch flavors 3-4 times a day in my did, neither off my rawr liquids give me that bleeding effect, nor does my bobbas.
Wat in a cartotank (phiniac) makes this happen, bc there its only the orange de sangre that does it to. Even in penelope that juice is darkening up, got clear windows.
I dont mind tough, like said flavor and vapor stays same till last drop.
Have not tried any of those. Perhaps there is something about naturally extracted tobaccos that isn't DID friendly? Possible I suppose although don't ask me to explain the science behind it; I flunked grade 13 chemistry but only because I was in a band![]()
I just squeezed and rolled the old mesh i took out between my fingers and a white tissue and it just gets wet, no color what-so-ever. So I am guessing it has something to do with the new mesh i am using since everything else is the same.
I have just seringed everything out of the DID, and then used seringe with water to flush out the tank to clean it and keep my setup the same. Have filled it with a different clear RY4 now (a PG instead of VG) and am going to see if it stars bleeding again.
I notice that my ADV has gotten darker in my tank, but I'm not noticing any bleeding effect with my setup. Curious to see how this works out. I would torch that wick once more, or do a juice burn on it .. just because.![]()
Punching up the bass on my non tobacco juice from 8.0W to 10.0W.
Keep ya posted.
